Rotherham may be boosted by the return of Lee Frecklington for Huddersfield game

Midfielder Lee Frecklington could be involved as Rotherham attempt to secure Sky Bet Championship safety versus Huddersfield.

Frecklington defied medical advice to start against Nottingham Forest on Saturday despite a calf injury but he was removed in the second half after feeling the problem tighten up.

Boss Neil Warnock has refused to write him off for Tuesday, but Joe Newell is on standby to start if Frecklington does not make it.

The Millers have no other injury concerns for a match which could see them confirm their safety if they better MK Dons' result at Sheffield Wednesday.

Huddersfield forward Jamie Paterson remains doubtful after missing Saturday's 2-0 win at Blackburn due to hamstring trouble.

Jonathan Hogg (knee) is closing in on a return to action and could feature, while fellow midfielder Kyle Dempsey stepped off the bench on Saturday after recovering from a calf strain.

Goalkeeper Joe Murphy (shoulder) is still out but head coach David Wagner has no new injury concerns and could select from an unchanged squad.

Midfielders Philip Billing and Karim Matmour, plus winger Sean Scannell are pushing for recalls to the starting line-up.
